Changes

{productname} 8.0.0 includes the following changes:

Enhanced license key system with T8LK prefix

The license key system in {productname} 8 has been enhanced to provide improved subscription access control and streamlined renewal processes. This change primarily affects self-hosted deployments, as cloud users ({cloudname}) do not require a license key.

Important

  • If you use {cloudname}, no license key is required - your cloud subscription automatically includes the commercial license.

  • For self-hosted deployments, all commercial license keys must use the new T8LK: prefix format.

  • Existing TinyMCE 7 license keys cannot be made compatible with TinyMCE 8 by adding the T8LK prefix.

Key changes for self-hosted deployments:

  • New T8LK: prefix requirement for all commercial license keys.

  • No server communication or "phone home" checks required

  • Support for both date-based and version-locked keys

  • Streamlined hybrid deployment configuration

  • Improved support for air-gapped and offline environments

Important

Cloud Deployments:

  • When using {cloudname}, only an API key is required - no license key needed

  • Your cloud subscription automatically includes the commercial license

Self-hosted Deployments:

  • Commercial use: Contact your account manager or visit Tiny Cloud Account to obtain a T8LK-prefixed license key

  • GPL use: Set license_key: 'gpl' (case insensitive)

  • Open source projects using premium features: Use the combined format license_key: 'GPL+T8LK:…​'

Upgrading from TinyMCE 7

  • Cloud Users ({cloudname}): No license key changes needed - simply update your {productname} version.

  • Self-hosted Users: Contact your account manager to obtain a new T8LK-prefixed license key.

For more information on the new license key system, see: License Key.
